Jiaobaowan Village in Hengtang Township is very lively these two days. First, relatives of the Lu family drove away Lu Yuanwai's son-in-law Fan Tieniu, and his daughter and grandson also disappeared.

The Lu family occupied the magpie's nest and held the funeral for Mr. Lu, and was ready to take over all the property of Mr. Lu.

The family of Mr. Lu, Mrs. Wu, was not willing to let his property fall into the hands of the Lu family. The two brothers of the Wu family brought more than a dozen Wu children to help Wu handle the funeral.

The son-in-law Fan Tieniu was driven away, and his daughter and grandson also fled. The Lu family and the Wu family no longer had any obstacles and began to discuss how to divide Lu Yuanwai's property.

Until this time, Mr. Lu, the wife of Mr. Wu, who had been fooled by two brothers, woke up as if she was dreaming.

It turned out that the Lu family and their parents did not want to leave their property to their daughters, nor did they say that they were afraid that the Fan family would come to steal the property, but that they wanted to divide the property that should belong to their daughters and grandsons.

Wu was lying in front of her husband's spirit and cried and made a fuss. Her two brothers carried into the room. The Lu family and several women from the Wu family took turns to persuade Wu.

However, there were serious differences in the division of property between the Lu family and the Wu family. The Lu family only agreed to share the house of Mr. Lu and a shop in the city for the Wu family's elderly care.

The more than 600 acres of land left by Lu Yuanwai are all returned to the Lu family and are inherited by Lu Yuanwai's brothers and sisters.

But the Wu family could not accept this method of division. They asked at least half of the land to be allocated to the Wu family for retirement. The two sides had a fierce quarrel over the division of 600 acres of land.

In the room, Lu Ashui slapped the table and said angrily: "A part of my brother's land was left by my father, and it has nothing to do with your Wu family. My elder brother has left, so the Lu family will certainly take back these lands.

The other land was also saved by my elder brother little by little over the past few decades. I have been so kind and righteous that I have never given up a single acre of land!”

Wu's eldest brother Wu Chongyi sneered: "Everyone is a fellow villager, who doesn't know who? Your father left a total of 300 acres of land, and your brothers each divided 100 acres, and the two daughters gave each fifty acres. As a result, if you want money or not, my brother-in-law would spend money to buy all the land in your hands. This was done by my father.

The other land is bought by the money earned by the restaurants in the city for twenty years. Now, when the restaurants are no longer making money, you just want land. You have taken all the good things to take. Why?"

Lu Ashui yelled straight at his neck, "Just because our surname is Lu, your surname is Wu, and the land belongs to our Lu family, you Wu family can't take it away."

At this moment, a Lu family member ran into the door in a panic and said anxiously: "Second uncle, someone has come from the government, and there are so many archers!"

Lu Ashui was stunned. Why did someone come to the government?

He also stayed in the county government for two years and was very clear about the rules of doing things in the county government. Generally, only the county magistrate went to the countryside when inspecting the county government. Unless there was something big, ordinary archers would not come.

Could it be the Fan family?

Lu Ashui suddenly felt a sudden tremor in his heart. The scene that happened two years ago still remembers it clearly.

At this time, he had already heard Dutou Lu Yougen's rough voice, "Everyone goes away and the government investigates the case!"

Lu Ashui couldn't stay any longer and had to hurried to the yard.

The yard was full of archers wearing red soap clothes and long swords on their waists. The old and young people of the Lu family in the spirit shed were hiding on the other side, looking at the murderous detective in fear.

Lu Ashui hurriedly stepped forward and saluted Dutou Lu Yougen, "Lu Dutou, it's been a long time since we saw each other."

Although Lu Ashui often called himself his family when he was in the county government office, in fact, they had nothing to do with each other, especially today, the magistrate Gao made a special explanation.

Lu Yougen said coldly: "Lu Min went to the county government to report the case and said that his grandfather died inexplicably. It is of great importance. According to the order of the Lord of Gao County, Bendu came down to investigate the case. Please cooperate!"

Lu Ashui was shocked and angry, "My brother clearly died of illness, so what is unknown? I know, it must be Fan Tieniu's instigation. He is so brave!"

"Shut up!"

Lu Yougen shouted angrily, "If there is a report, there will be a case investigation. Who are you from Lu Atian?"

"I'm his brother!"

Lu Yougen asked coldly: "I want to see Lu Atian's wife and children, where are they?"

At this time, Wu Chongyi stepped forward and said, "My eldest sister is in poor health and it is not convenient to meet outsiders."

"Who are you?"

Lu Yougen glared at him, "Are you Lu Youzhuang's son?"

Wu Chongyi waved his hand quickly, "No! No! I am his wife's brother-in-law."

"It's really funny. The county government investigates the case, but the main master is not here. A bunch of messy people are active. I want to see the main master, where are their family?"

At this time, Wu ran out with his hair disheveled, knelt in front of Lu Yougen and cried, "The official is the decision of the civilian woman!"

"You are Lu Atian's wife?"

"It's true for the civilian woman!"

Lu Yougen nodded, "Your grandson and daughter went to the county government to report the case, saying that someone wanted to seek your husband's property, which caused him to die inexplicably. The case involved money and murder. The county magistrate attached great importance to it and asked me to lead the archer to investigate the case."

This sentence made everyone around him take a breath and they retreated one after another.

Lu Ashui and Wu Chongyi looked at each other, and Lu Ashui hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Lu Dutou misunderstood. My brother died of illness. No one harmed him, and no one sought his property."

Wu cried and said, "It's not for money, what are you doing? You give my daughter and grandson back!"

Wu Chongyi stomped his feet in a hurry, "Sister, this is a two-digit matter. My brother-in-law's death has nothing to do with us. We are afraid that you will suffer losses, so we came to help you."

At this time, Lu Yougen's face turned gloomy and said impatiently: "No need to explain, we will do our business according to the regulations. First, confirm the property. Aunt Wu, I need all the property certificates in your husband's name. Please hand over the land deed and the house deed to me, and also count the money and property in the family. We need to register and record."

Wu pointed to Lu Ashui and said, "He snatched away the land deed and the house deed!"

Lu Yougen snorted coldly, "It seems that he is suspected of committing money and killing me!"

Several archers rushed up and pushed Lu Ashui to the ground. Lu Ashui shouted angrily: "I did not seek money and kill me. I just kept it for the sake of custody. The deed and the deed of the house are in the room."

"Is there any guilt? Let's talk about it after investigation!"

Before Wu could speak, Wu Chongyi quickly handed over the key to the cellar, "This is the key to the cellar, and my brother-in-law's money is all in the cellar."

Lu Yougen snorted heavily and ordered his men, "Take all the things out and register!"

His subordinates entered the house, and soon they took out the land deed and the house deed. More than a dozen constables struggled to lift out several large and heavy boxes from the cellar, all of which were silver and copper coins, and had been sealed.

At this time, Qian Zuo quickly walked out of the spirit shed and whispered a few words to Lu Yougen.

Lu Yougen nodded and said to everyone: "We will thoroughly investigate the cause of Lu Atian's death. Before the investigation is concluded, you can hold funerals normally. As for these land deeds, house deeds and property, they will be temporarily seized by the government as evidence. Once the investigation is over, we will return them to the owner."

Lu Yougen waved his hand and said, "Take it away!"

The constables carried a few large boxes, took the house deeds and land deeds and left the Lu family, and returned to the county government, leaving only dozens of people from the stunned Lu family and Wu family.

"We're fooled!"

Wu Chongyi said to Lu Ashui in anger: "The county government is clearly here to help Fan Tieniu fight for property. Mr. Lu, what should we do?"

Lu Ashui gritted his teeth and said, "I don't believe that County Magistrate Gao dared to shelter Fan Tieniu so unscrupulously. I want to sue and ask for the property belonging to the Lu family."

Two days later, the case of Lu Atian's property dispute began trial in the county government.

The day before, the county government had concluded its investigation into Lu Atian's death, confirming that he died of serious illness, but the property dispute caused by this case is getting worse and worse.

More than 30 members of the Lu family jointly filed a lawsuit with the county government, demanding that Lu Atian’s land deed be returned to the Lu family.

However, because the Wu family refused to compete for property again, the Wu family, which was eyeing it, had to withdraw from Lu Atian's property dispute.

In the court, Lu Ashui and his two sisters were on one side, and Fan Tieniu's family of three.

Gao Fei looked at the complaints between the two parties and asked Lu Ashui first, "Lu Atian died of illness. Although he had no son, he had a son-in-law, a daughter, and his own grandson. You and your sisters wanted to share the land of your brother. What reason do you have?"

Although Lu Ashui was a lawyer, he was still a little helpless in the face of the sharp questioning of Gao County Magistrate. After all, he had never considered taking property by suing a lawsuit, but wanted to use a rogue method with a large number of people to drive away Fan Tieniu and occupy his brother's land.

Even if the gentry mediates, he is confident that he will not lose to the Fan family. What's more, the Grand Official Zhu, who the Fan family relies on, has returned to Wujiang?

But he never expected that this matter would hit the county government. Lu Ashui knew that he was in the wrong and felt a little retreated, but he could not explain it in front of his clan members, so he had to bite the bullet and fight the lawsuit.

"Report to the county lord, my father left three hundred acres of land in the six hundred acres of land that my father and I did not get, and my brother directly converted the land deed into his own without our consent.

In addition, my father left behind the house where my brother lived and the restaurant in the county. We all believe that although the elder brother has the right to inherit, after the elder brother's death, the ancestral property should be inherited by other brothers, and should not be handed over to our descendants directly."

Lu Ashui's sister also added: "We don't want the property that our elder brother earns, we only want the property that our father has left behind."

The other party made some sense. Gao Fei nodded and asked Fan Tieniu's family of three again, "What do you say?"
